Darren Clarke has been paired with Lucas Herbert and Davis Riley, and they are underway at 7.52am.
Defending champions Xander Schauffele will play with Jon Rahm and US Open champion JJ Spaun, while Bryson DeChambeau has been paired with Robert MacIntyre and Justin Rose. Ludvig Aberg, Viktor Hovland, and Jordan Spieth form another A-list group immediately after.
